The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Extremely Lightweight Fuel Cell Based Power Supply System for Commercial Aircrafts

    SBC: Fuceltech Inc            Topic: 1

    Fuceltech proposes to develop a low cost lightweight Energy Storage and Power Generation (ESPG) system for commercial aircrafts in the ARPA-E REEACH program. Fuceltech will develop a single fuel cell (5kW to be developed in the program and potentially as high as 10kW from a single cell) and a novel stacking approach which can be used to deliver hundreds of kW or MWs of power from a single small an ...

  2. INNOVATIVE LAYERED COMPOSITE METAL DECK SYSTEM

    SBC: Acrow Corporation Of America            Topic: 20FH2

    This project investigates an innovative modular steel bridge deck system of a “sandwich” design for achieving the necessary stiffness in orthogonal directions employing two steel plates separated by a steel stiffening core.Such a layered composite deck could become an ideal solution for the next generation of bridge applications.With the appropriate choice of the core profile, the transverse s ...

  3. Upcycling Ocean-based Plastics for Sustainable Feedstock Supply Chain

    SBC: RIKARBON INC            Topic: 07b

    Plastics are ubiquitous in modern life. Global production of plastics (polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polyvinylchloride (PVC), and others) has reached about 400 million tons annually. Total plastics production has increased by 36% in the past decade and is estimated to grow to 700 million tons in 2030. The National Center for Ecological A ...

  4. Hybrid Diamond Detector for Nuclear Reactor Monitoring

    SBC: Applied Diamond, Inc.            Topic: 37a

    Safe operation of nuclear reactors is key for successful use of nuclear energy and prevention of potential accidents. Multiple physical processes for reactor save operations are coupled together, including heat generation, heat transfer, and radiation level. Monitoring of temperature and neutron flux inside the reactor provides critical operational and safety information. Reactor monitoring requir ...

  5. Stilbene Array for Portable Neutron Imaging

    SBC: INRAD OPTICS, INC.            Topic: 02b

    Neutron detection and imaging technologies are critical for inspecting nuclear materials located inside containers. Applications in both nuclear material control and nonproliferation would benefit from detector materials with greater ability to distinguish neutron and gamma radiation and which also facilitate portable operation. The organic crystalline scintillator stilbene has long been recognize ...

  6. Direct separation, purification and regeneration of cathode materials for aged lithium ion battery using a novel low-temperature plasma assisted separation (LPAS) process

    SBC: PRINCETON NUENERGY INC            Topic: 12a

    Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) have emerged as the battery of choice for rapidly growing markets in electric vehicles (EVs) and grid electricity storage. This spurs a great demand for lithium, graphite, cobalt, and nickel that could outstrip the supply of virgin materials. Thus, there is an enormous interest in the development of new technologies for recycling and recovery of valuable materials from ...

  7. Elimination of Wire Bonding for Cryogenic Applications

    SBC: SUNRAY SCIENTIFIC INC.            Topic: 36c

    Much of what is known of our universe on cosmological scales has been enabled by quantum sensors in the form of transition edge sensors (TES). Many of the most promising dark matter searches employ TES, superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs), and other quantum-based devices such as DM Radio, CDMS. As traditional, silicon-based circuitry approaches the limit of the atomic scale, quan ...

  8. Transformational Sorbent-Based Process for Direct Air Capture

    SBC: INNOSEPRA LLC            Topic: 20b

    Unlike CO2 capture plants at point sources, direct air capture plants can be sited very close to sequestration/end use sites and can take advantage of very low/negative power prices at certain times of the day due to the availability of renewables. These plants need to be part of the toolkit for reducing atmospheric CO2 levels as direct air capture is the only technology capable of reducing the le ...

  9. Transformation of carbon emissions to high-value products through a two-step electrochemical platform

    SBC: LECTROLYST LLC            Topic: G

    Carbon dioxide utilization can help reduce carbon emissions, but gaps remain in the value chain from initial capture to high-value products. Lectrolyst LLC will develop an electrochemical platform centered on selective two-step conversion of CO2 to acetic acid and ethylene, to fill this need. Preliminary life cycle assessment and techno-economic analyses indicate ~200 million metric tons of CO2 em ...

  10. Novel Proton Alignment Aid for Isotope Production

    SBC: Applied Diamond, Inc.            Topic: 35a

    Accelerator produced radioisotopes are used every day for medical imaging techniques such as positron emission tomography PET). Importantly, research into the development of new isotopes suitable for this technique has expanded the biological characteristics which can be studied using this non-invasive method. This technique relies on robust production of these isotopes for the expansion of this e ...
